PDF Files Not Importing
« on: June 03, 2023, 03:29:29 pm »

MC31 - I have trouble importing pdf files into my Photo Albums.
I have checked off the DATA box in the Import Options and re-run the Import.
Any suggestions?

Please turn the caps lock off.  It's considered shouting.

PDF is a data file and won't show up under images.

It should be under the Data category in the tree on the left.

Didn't know about the Caps...was only trying to identify it as a button to be selected versus a common word.


So... reading between the lines, even if I recategorize a pdf file as an image and put it in the correct album, it still won't (for example) play in a slide show, therefore was my correct procedure to originally scan the files as jpg or to convert these pdf's to jpg instead?

JRiver defaults tend to treat image and data files as different things however some of us consider them to be similar since they are both static visual information.

It's no big deal. Just create a custom view that displays both image and data files.
